Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

The only way through is to slog through the muck one step at at time.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

75% of people clapping liked the show!

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

Dear media: perhaps we ought to let Donald Trump speak for himself!

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

    And end up sprouting from some pod into alien bliss, like in the movies. Fuck that, never fall asleep, or hand the wheel over to a troll. My grandpappy used to say that playing cards, to temporarily flummox us before hollering RUMMY!

    @Yutsano:

    The formatting of this entire site is a bit funky. If they are going for the “Just install random wordpress theme with defaults and call it a day” look then mission accomplished.

    I see there is no right hand column but there is comment from Tom Levenson about his bleg yesterday. Could that have sent the format off the rails? When I clicked on the contained reference to yesterday’s post from Tom, the format for that post was okay (in three columns).

    I’m guessing the video was set up wrong..it’s all Tom’s fault, no doubt.

    The formatting is broken only for this post — the preceding open thread and the next one, Comrade DougJ’s post on K-Thug’s Monday column, are fine.

    O Tom Levenson! What hast thou done?

    ETA: And now it’s fixed.

    What have I done? What has Anne Laurie undone?

    all seems well from where I sit, full of home-made fried chicken.

    @Fred:
    Nope, the cat head butts the dolphin several times. Cats never head butt their lunch – that is reserved for objects of affection. The reaching out with the paw is clearly, “Hey, come back.” What’s interesting is that the dolphin seems to be very much “into” the cat, as well.

    Dolphins have been declared the world’s second most intelligent creatures after humans, with scientists suggesting they are so bright that they should be treated as “non-human persons”.

    Studies into dolphin behaviour have highlighted how similar their communications are to those of humans and that they are brighter than chimpanzees. These have been backed up by anatomical research showing that dolphin brains have many key features associated with high intelligence.

    Seriously, see my subsequent comment on broken rendering of block quotes. The two paragraphs above and the URL in the HTML code are clearly wrapped with correct opening and closing blockquote tags. But the first paragraph only is split into proper display as a blockquote. Why can’t this be fixed?

    Well, that is just great. Using blockquotes on this web site is STILL BROKEN. Why? Two paragraphs, wrapped with appropriate open and close blockquote tags, using the options on the comment editor. And it displays with the first paragraph broken off. Seriously. How the heck do you do blockquotes when correct syntax is simply ignored when rendered??
